Finding Andre

Lionel Washington didn’t really want everyone to help him to go and find his uncle Andre. He will go to Talia, and he doesn’t want his friends to get in trouble with these kinds of people. But the other kids told Lionel if they don’t hear from Lionel after eleven they will come after him. Lionel jogged out to his bike and rode directly to their home, and he wasn’t aware that Judd following him. He was still certain he would be safe, but if did make him feel better to know that the others cared about him. Lionel walked in and advent straight upstairs to his room. He heard quick footsteps from a back room down stairs. They came across the hardwood floors in the living room, into the dining room and up upstairs. Lionel stepped out and saw Talia, and tells her that she will need to bring Lionel to his uncle Andre. Talia hesitated because when Leroy’s know about it, He might kill her or Andre.

The roadster was a cool car, Lionel thought and had it not been for the disappearance of his family and the danger in w/c he now found himself. He might be impressed in unusual car since he was a small child, but now this was just a way to get Andre. Something to ride in Talia seemed unable to concentrate even on where she was going. All she could say over and over that Leroy will kill her if he knew about this. Lionel tried to change the topic just for Talia not talked about Leroy. And he asked Talia about the disappearance of people, and then she told Lionel that during that time they are on the night party with his uncle. But nobody disappeared that night.

Lionel almost wished he hadn’t started on the subject within minutes. Talia was wiping her eyes with her fingers while still crying to maneuver Leroy’s roadsters to Chicago traffic. Lionel was eager to reconnect with Andre, but he didn’t want Talia crying and driving at the same time. He was relieved when she finally pulled to the side of the street about six blocks south where the police found the body they thought was Andre. Talia was grown in a Christian Family the same way with Lionel, Talia’s Mom warned her about the rapture, but she always ignored it. Lionel told Talia that it’s not too late. He shared about the other three kids, that they have still a chance to come to God. Talia response that it’s too late for her because when Jesus took the Christians away, the Holy Ghost left and nobody can be saved anymore. Lionel was not agree about Talia’s talked about, He recommend to talked with his Pastor, But Talia knew that Pastor Bruce also left behind like them. The Bible talks about a great harvest of souls during the last seven years of the world. Something like a billion and half people will get saved, and there be like 144,000 Jewish evangelists. Even  that was true Lionel, but it’s too late for me, If there really is a second chance, I don’t deserved one I knew it. 

To Lionel it appeared that Talia suddenly realized she was pouring her out to thirteen years old. She quickly wiped her eyes again, turned the rearview mirror so she could check her face and quit crying. Talia led Lionel around the back of a three story brick apartment building in a bad neighborhood. Lionel wondered if Judd and the others were still keeping truck of Him. In a way he hoped they were, but also wondered what three white kids would do protect him in this neighborhood. As they approached the rear entrance, Lionel noticed the light when off in the apartment at the end on the top floor, as they climbed the square staircase, Lionel was quickly enveloped in odors and noise. People were apparently cooking, arguing and fighting, as they reached the third floor, where the lights at the end of the building had gone out, Talia put a finger to his lips and knocked four times at the door. Talia knocked on the door and she said she was together with his nephew Lionel, before the words were out of her mouth, Andre had begun the process of unlocking, unbolting and unchaining the door. He peered out from the dark apartment then grabbed Talia and Lionel and yanked them inside. He shut, locked, bolted and chained the door in the dark. Lionel heard Andre feeling along the wall for a switch, when single, bare bulb came on above them, Lionel was stunned to see his wasted uncle. Andre was a barefoot and wore a pair of old, shiny suits pants and sleeveless T-shirt with food stains down the front. His breath smelled alcohol and his dark eyes were blooded. It was all Lionel could do to keep from gasping and telling his uncle how bad he looked. Lionel assumed Andre knew that and didn’t care. Andre squinted at her and looked as if he were about to burst into tears, but his shoulder sagged and he talked away like a little boy would be ordered about by his mother. Atlas Lionel was relieved that his uncle André was still alive.

The only things Andre had to chance into were had to chance into were brightly colored and way to big look out shorts and a T-shirt that had been left the apartment. Lionel could wonder whose place this was and whose clothes they were. Andre was very glad to see Talia and his nephew, Lionel was frustrated this no Family reunion. This was the Family he had left. Andre talked to Lionel about what happened after you left the crazy message on my answering machine, but the phone rung Andre jumped then stared Talia. Andre answered the phone immediately glared Talia and it was Leroy.

--Guys, I was confused who is Leroy, who’s this man, what was the connection between Andre and Talia, or He is the man behind Andre fake suicide, We must know on the next chapter, we better watch out for it. J
